or

Code:

nmap -sP 192.168.0.1/24


Or


!/bin/bash

for ip in 192.168.0.{1..254}; do
  ping -c 1 -W 1 $ip | grep "64 bytes" &
done

Example Of usb0 connection (network)

Code:

finding your own ip is important


Code:

ifconfig eth0

Code:

sudo nmap -sP 192.168.1.0/24

Code:


sudo nmap -sP 192.168.42.0/24

you can do ranges

Code:

nmap -sP  192.168.0.1-254

Code:

sudo nmap -sP 192.168.1.0/24

Code:

1/4  <<< can be added or any other number in some cases

Other methods

Code:

sudo arp-scan --localnet

Code:

nmap -sP 192.168.254.*

So for example if your network is 192.168.42.0

Code:

sudo nmap -sP 192.168.42.0/24

and likwaise if your network is 192.168.1 then the following:

Code:

sudo nmap -sP 192.168.1.0/24

Code:

sudo arp-scan --interface=eth0 192.168.1.0/24

Code:

sudo arp-scan --interface=usb0 192.168.42.0/24

Showing Switches mac address
